Gamekult gave this game a 6/10, and Xenoblade 8/10. Not that any of that matters, since they give every game a bad or mediocre score regardless of platform or quality. (so in real life 6/10 is 9/10 and 8/10 is 11/10)

Who else on Nintendo Life is really exited about The Last Story? Of course all we have to go by is the development website, all in Japanese, but something about the name, the music, the concept art and Satoru Iwata's comment that Mistwalker are seeking to create "a new form of RPG by choosing the universal theme of human emotion" all adds up to this seeming like something special indeed.

It's not the funnest thing to sign it however it gets people aware. Maybe it will also get people messaging Nintendo via twitter, email, etc and start getting the word out for both of these games! They said during E3 they believe the Wii separated the hardcore and casual, I however believe that there are many "hardcore" fans that own a Wii as well as other systems and like to buy good games no matter the system. When a quality RPG comes along for the Wii, a genre that hasn't seen as many good titles this generation across all platform, and its developed by known groups, it gets us excited. We have to let Nintendo know, hey, we want this game too!

I just signed the petition.....I hope The Last Story gets released,but Xenoblade has already been confirmed for release in the west,so I'm not worried too much about Xenoblade Chronicles not being released

I really want The Last Story and Xenoblade localized, but if Nintendo doesn't want to do it, a petition won't change their mind. "Hardcore" doesn't mean anything anymore, but I think the issue is that the game's target audience would be much larger on other platforms. It still seems strange that they wouldn't go for an international release, considering how easy it would be to market. At least Xenoblade is confirmed for Europe, so I can import that.

@kdognumba1 As others have mentioned, nintendo confirmed that Xenoblade chronicles would be released in Europe and on of the voice actors said it would be release in NA and also said that its out in EU in September. The last story is also confirmed for an EU release but an NA release is yet to be confirmed.After reading the review that Tealovertoma posted a link to, I'm looking forward to this even more than I already was.

It looks better than Xenoblade, that's for sure. It looks like new Final Fantasy (VII and beyond) mixed with old Final Fantasy (I-VI).Graphics (New) Actual Fantasy game (old)

Its not really like Final fantasy, especially not the older ones. For example there is no overworld, just one big town so the side quests are either doing jobs for people round the town or being transported to a dungeon similar to the ones in the main chapters after talking to someone. To progress the story and play the main chapters of the game, there will be someone on the town to talk to that will lead to the next chapter. I've heard that its very easy until you're nearing the end but if you do need to grind you can call on groups of enemies to grind with in certain rooms. These rooms are often before a boss fight. I found some of this disappointing but it still looks like a really good a game but not as good as Xenoblade chronicles, that game looks epic.

I'd be surprised if it didn't make it to Australia considering it's it's coming out in Europe.And even if it didn't, I couldn't really care less because I'd just get it off eBay or something.

Really excited for this game.Out of the three 'Operation Rainfall' games, I was initially most excited for this.But since playing Xenoblade Chronicles for over 80 hours and not being done with it, I'm very doubtful that it'll be able to top the love I have for that game.If it can, it'll be quite close to my favourite game ever, but as I said, I doubt I'm going to like it more than Xenoblade.Expecting a pretty amazing game either way so I can't wait.At the least it should be my second favourite RPG that I've ever played.

I think that the people who are hyping this up so much probably haven't looked into the game that much. Don't get me wrong, I'm really looking forward to it but I doubt that it will come close to beating the amazing Xenoblade chronicles and I don't think the critical reception will be as good. I don't think I'm far enough to decide on how I would rate XBC (currently at Valak mountain) but when I am It seems like a game that I would rate as a high 9/10 or maybe even a 10/10 whereas The last story looks like a game worthy of a high 8/10 or a low 9/10 from what I've seen.

Too early for The Last Story I guess, but we'll find out next year when it's released in Europe/Australia.

I finished Xenoblade Chronicles and I'll soon be starting my second run of it so I can complete a lot more of the side quests and such and the game completely surpassed the expectations I had of it.Personally, it's one of my favourite games of all time.The gameplay is fun and all the user friendly features they added means nothing ever really gets frustrating or boring.The story is compelling and keeps you interested from start to finish and it has a great soundtrack to go with it.

I feel like playing it now, but it's 3:50 in the morning so that'll probably have to wait till later.

Most of it doesn't have any examples of the localization but the humming at the end sounds different to the way it sounded in the original Japanese trailer so that must be how it will sound in the European version. It definitely doesn't sound as good as the Japanese version but I think its ridiculous that in some of the comments on youtube people are making assumptions that the game as a whole will have bad localization just because of that.
